Dear Sir/ Madam, We have installed windows 7 in 20 PCs... Now we are facing problem in that 20 PCs. we cant copy CDs from Network but we can copy on XP machine for same accounts... and also in XP we can open Remote Desktop on PCs by intelliadmin third party tool but we cant open it on Windows 7 and SMS Client is also not installed. and also we are not seeing PCs in My network places. I think here in Windows 7 we have advanced firewall. how can we disable it if it exist...... How can we make firewall policies same like windows XP........... Thanks & Regards Vishal Sharma
